Harmonic Dance is a type of musical instrument. A ''real'' Dancer wears a '''Harmonic Dance Corset''', which uses incredibly sensitive microphones to pick up the neural impulses in their spine and translate them into sound waves; this allows a dancer to provide both music and movement at the same time, "a joy for all the senses" as described in the press release for the instrument originally branded as the [[Synaesthetiphone]].

However, as generic replicas of the instrument became more popular, several companies (realising how difficult it was to tune such a device so that any given dance produced music in a compatible style) released their own cheaper and simpler variants. These often took the form of a suit which measured the flexing of knee and elbow joints, which could be used to produce a simple beat, or even a ''Dancer's Mat'', a conventional keyboard with its keys rearranged into a spiral pattern and made of soft foam so that a dancer can stand on them.

As well as the instrument, [[Harmonic Dance]] can mean the style of dance necessary to play good music; some critics even extend the term to mean the visual aesthetic of any musician playing an instrument.
